Sacred Heart student found dead in murder-suicide

Caroline Dyms, a top golfer at the Convent of the Sacred Heart, was found dead Friday at her home in northern Westchester County, N.Y.

A student at the Sacred Heart Greenwich was found dead at her residence in Pound Ridge, N.Y., Friday morning.

Caroline Dym was set to enter her senior year this fall at the private school off King Street. She was a stand-out on the school’s golf team.

According to New York State Police, Caroline was killed by her father, Steven Dym.

“A preliminary investigation indicated that 56-year-old Steven Dym of Pound Ridge, took the life of his 50-year-old wife Loretta Dym, their daughter, Caroline Dym, age 18, before taking his own life,” according to a state police statement.

The bodies were found in the upscale residence by a maid, according to the Journal News of Westchester.

State police were not revealing how the murders were committed.

Steven Dym was a real-estate manager. Loretta Dym was a vice-president at a company that finds accommodations for business travelers.

Caroline Dym won honors last year at a statewide science fair, with a classmate.

Neighbors told reporters that the house had been put on the market.

The Westchester County Medical Examiner’s Office will conduct autopsies as part of the investigation.
